Colin Cowherd: “Pittsburgh feels right. Pittsburgh has averaged about 9.5 wins over the last three years, and that’s with leading the NFL in sacks for five straight years, a Hall of Fame coach, always way above average receivers, and now a sensational rookie tight end. They were winning about 9.5 games a year – what does that tell you? Ben was REALLY bad. I think Garoppolo in Pittsburgh is a significant upgrade over Ben Roethlisberger. If you lead the NFL in sacks for half a decade, you have a Hall of Fame coach, you have really nice weapons, and I say they win about 9 games a year… Then I say, ‘do the play in the NFC West?’ No. ‘Do they play in the AFC West with all those quarterbacks?’ No. They play in the AFC North. You get Garoppolo over to the AFC, it’s good for him, I’d absolutely sign him to a two-year deal, and if I was the Niners, I’d ask for one of their corners, I don’t want a Draft pick. You give me a corner and you can have Jimmy.” (Full Video Above)
Listen to Colin Cowherd explain which NFL team he thinks would make the best landing spot for embattled lame-duck quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo, who has once again become the Niners whipping boy when it comes to San Francisco’s shortcomings in the playoffs.
Garoppolo has already publicly stated that he expects to be traded by the 49ers with one year left on his deal and former first-round pick Trey Lance waiting in the wings for the Niners, and has specifically professed that he wants to play for a contender.
